OnlineHasbro Star Wars MTT Droid Carrier pictures and hands-on

Gaming 3.5 out of 5Kinect: Star Wars review
Star Wars is everywhere. The Lucas empire extends far beyond the reach of any traditional franchise, with our friends C3PO and R2D2 being as ubiquitous as the kitchen sink. Some of the ancillary elements to the Star Wars world are great - Knights of the...

Gaming 3 out of 5Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II review
Say what you will about Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II, but it’s far from the worst Star Wars game ever made. Is it as wretched as the licensed game of Episode III? Not on your nelly. As rotten as The Clone Wars or Super Bombad Racing? How on Earth...
